I need a new air compressor that will be up to the task of painting, as my Firebird is almost ready for primer. My gun requires 10.1 CFM @ 30psi, its a SATAjet 4000b RP. So with 25% margin for safety i need around 12.5CFM @40psi. Id like 80gal, but 60 should suffice ill just have to be mindful of how long i hold the trigger. Basically I've come down to these 2, Craigslist is full of nothing but 10-20gal or $1500+ diesel compressors, and rentals are about the same price range id spend on a compressor. A friend of mine has had a smaller 110v Puma for 6ish years now and its still going so i haven't dismissed them for being Chinese. Does anybody have any input, ideas, reasons, experience with either?
